Dear All,
I have two problems with this tool.
i am using ilorest 2.4 on centos 7.6
at first, it was working fine to save bios setting with :
ilorest save --selector=Bios. -f settings.json
and loading them with :
ilorest load -f /path/to/jsonfile/settings.json
After a reset of the servers, all bios setting are now the same.
we wanted to change some further bios settings, so i tried doing the same as above again.
and now ilorest is no longer working, when i try to load the bios settings, i now get :
ilorest load -f /path/to/jsonfile/settings.json
Chif driver not found, please check that the chif driver is installed
I have searched for this error, and found this suggestion :
modprobe hpilo (servers accepts this, but ilorest still gives out the same error)
/etc/init.d/hp-ilo start (this startup script does not exist on the servers)
Second issue is updating the ilo firmware, when i try :
lorest flashfwpkg ilo5_143.fwpkg
"Failed to decompress file"
(but this was when ilorest was working, not i just get the same problem with the chif driver not found)
Many thanks in advanced for any help!
Best Regards
Patric
